Capítulo 32: Chapter 32: Repel the Man-Faced Demon Spider_1
Ning Rongrong, upon hearing Ning Fengzhi's angry shout, felt a shudder run through her delicate frame, and tears of grievance began to fall from her eyes...
"Dad has never spoken to me like this before, but this is clearly the fault of Uncle Bone and Uncle Sword. Why should I apologize?"
"I won't apologize! If it comes to it, I'll just hunt soul beasts on my own! I don't need you all to interfere!"
With anger, Ning Rongrong flicked her sleeves and, after shouting, stormed off...
Gu Rong stood up in haste and called out, "Rongrong..."
However, he was held back by Ning Fengzhi. Hearing Gu Rong's voice only quickened Ning Rongrong's steps as she hurried away...
Helplessly sitting back down, he sighed and muttered, "Ah, Fengzhi, was this really necessary?"
Chen Xin, unable to contain his irritation, put on a stern face and, filled with displeasure, questioned Feng Zhi, "Feng Zhi! What are you doing? What's so important about apologizing or not? Isn't it fine as long as Rongrong is happy?"
This trivial matter has upset his Rongrong; there was no need for that at all!
Hearing Chen Xin's words, Ning Fengzhi slowly closed his eyes...
How could his heart not ache as well?
Ning Rongrong was his own daughter, his precious treasure. He had never been willing to be angry with her, but this time, he could no longer indulge her.
If she continued to behave so willfully, exuding such an attitude of superiority, would she ever gain friends whom she could count on in the future?
Seated on the chair, Ning Fengzhi silently took a breath and a bitter smile emerged at the corners of his mouth, "Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone, you've both spoiled her too much, which is not good for Rongrong's future."
Chen Xin stood up, crossed his arms, and turned his head away, "Humph! I don't care. If Rongrong gets mad at me this time, I won't let you off the hook."
In the face of Chen Xin's petulance, Ning Fengzhi could only respond with a wry smile...
Gu Rong furrowed his brows, concerned that Ning Rongrong might encounter something bad alone, "Feng Zhi, won't something happen to Rongrong like this? I'd feel more at ease going to check on her."
To his surprise, Ning Fengzhi shook his head and dismissed the suggestion, speaking indifferently, "No need, let Rongrong think things over by herself. Besides, as long as she stays within the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, no one can harm her, right?"
Chen Xin and Gu Rong exchanged glances and ultimately gave up...
...
Xu Sheng, walking through Sunset Forest, looked up at the pitch-black surroundings, all covered by dense locust trees, especially with the occasional sounds of soul beasts' mournful cries, even he felt somewhat wary.
Xu Sheng sat down with a thud, grumbling, "Sunset Forest looks pretty scary at first glance, all dull and gray. It's a lot more terrifying compared to Aquipeia Forest. I wish I hadn't come."
He thought Sunset Forest's soul beasts would be poorer quality than those in Aquipeia Forest, not knowing that the feeling at night would be a complete turnaround...
Suddenly, a "hiss-hiss" sound came from the branches behind Xu Sheng, and there appeared a Datura snake, about 1.5 meters long and covered in deadly poison!
Its cold, sinister eyes were fixed on Xu Sheng's neck, waiting for the perfect moment to deliver a fatal blow...
Xu Sheng couldn't be bothered to pay attention, stretching lazily...
Just then, the Datura snake's venomous pupils dilated, slowly tinted with purple, aiming at Xu Sheng with the swiftness of lightning...
Xu Sheng rolled his eyes and with a backhand slap, he caught the datura snake's lower jaw, preventing it from advancing further.
He then easily pulled it down from the branch and, holding its head, rubbed it vigorously against the ground...
Only the soft whimpers of the Datura snake could be heard, which soon ceased, indicating the end of its life...
A yellow Soul Ring emerged from the corpse...
Seeing that he had unintentionally killed it, Xu Sheng scratched his head sheepishly and tossed it aside.
He shook his head in resignation and said, "It really can't take a hit!"
The words had not yet fallen when a woman's piercing scream sounded ahead...
"Ahhhhhh! Get away from me... Get away from me!"
Xu Sheng, who initially had no intention of meddling, narrowed his eyes upon hearing the female voice, feeling as though he had heard this voice somewhere before.
...
Collapsed on the ground, Ning Rongrong felt as if her legs had lost all strength, her face pale as she stared at the soul beast before her.
It was a giant spider with a pattern on its back that closely resembled a human face, its numerous glinting small eyes beneath its antennae fixed on Ning Rongrong as if it had already deemed her delicious prey.
Frozen in terror by the Man-Faced Demon Spider, Ning Rongrong's delicate body trembled continuously, her tone filled with endless fear, "You ugly freak, stay away from me! Get lost!"
Now Ning Rongrong's heart was filled with regret. If only she had known, she wouldn't have come to this dangerous place alone on a whim!
And to encounter such an ugly soul beast!
The Man-Faced Demon Spider, which couldn't understand human speech, moved its several thick legs and spat silk as it slowly approached Ning Rongrong...
Ning Rongrong curled up tightly, her eyes filled with despair as she watched the Man-Faced Demon Spider draw nearer, without any power to resist, she could only keep repeating with a weak cry, "Save me... someone save me!"
The Man-Faced Demon Spider, now less than a meter away from Ning Rongrong, seemed to no longer contain its killing intent and suddenly leaped, pouncing on the paralyzed Ning Rongrong with its massive body...
In a hurry, Ning Rongrong extended her arms to cover her head, fearfully closing her eyes and exclaiming, "Ah!"
...
Only the sound "bang" was heard as the Man-Faced Demon Spider's abdomen caved in by several tens of centimeters, its massive body flipped backwards more than a dozen meters, slamming violently against a tree...
As it slid down and stood up again, its eyes bore an unwilling gaze at Ning Rongrong, who still hadn't recovered from the shock...
Crouching on the ground, Ning Rongrong cautiously stretched out her hands, her fearful gaze scanning her surroundings briefly...
Seeing the disappearance of the Man-Faced Demon Spider from in front of her, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, holding her right hand which had been cut by sharp stones as she slowly stood up...
She scanned the pitch-black surroundings, trying to inquire, "Was it Bone Grandpa and Sword Grandpa?"
Without getting a response, the light on Ning Rongrong's face dimmed...
If Bone Grandpa and Sword Grandpa had heard her voice, they would have rushed out immediately, but now...
They clearly weren't here!
With just her Level 10 Soul Power and being a support-class Soul Master who had not yet absorbed a Soul Ring, she stood no chance of escaping the perilous Sunset Forest.
Anxious, Ning Rongrong started to stamp her feet and think wildly, "What should I do? What should I do!"
If that Man-Faced Demon Spider came back, how would she handle it?
If she encountered other soul beasts, could she escape from them?
Xu Sheng, standing behind Ning Rongrong, began to twitch at the corners of his mouth; he had been standing behind her ever since he drove off the Man-Faced Demon Spider.
Who knew the girl hadn't even noticed him...
Xu Sheng stretched out a finger and gently poked Ning Rongrong's delicate and enticing shoulder...
Feeling someone poking her from behind, she instinctively furrowed her brows and scolded, "Leave me alone..."
The next second, as if realizing something terrifying, her face froze again...
Clutching her chest tightly, her body shaking, she slowly turned around...
